our conveyancer was totally rubish and we nearly lost the house because of him.user1977 said:Why isn't your conveyancer advising you about this (given that's what you paid them for!)?0 -
This was less than one hours fee for our last solicitor and is surely just the property companies legal fees for updating their records with appropriate diligence (including any records regarding your mortgage companies interest in the property in case you fail to pay them longterm). As they didn’t force the sale they shouldn’t be responsible for the costs incurred.

We bought the freehold house in the new estate. They charge 150pounds per year for the maintanance of the common areas but they demand post completion fees of over 220 pounds just because i bought the house! Is there any way i can argue with these excecive fees for nothing
